The Dong With A Luminous Nose

Show dates: 4 July to 12 August 2007

London Bubble's summer production for 2007 was a story of Dan and Dave, teenagers of the city, on the cusp of adulthood.

They thirst for the status of an adult life, pushing behind them the symbols of childhood – play, rhyming and innocence.

But when a mysterious man with a luminous nose takes them on a journey from their familiar urban world and leads them to the Great Gromboolian plain beyond – well, they're not sure what they want any more. Faced with talking rats, a squabbling owl and pussycat, and a bunch of singing baboons, would you?

London Bubble takes Edward Lear's much-loved nonsense poem and injects a touch of reality to create an open-air production full of humour, live music and emotion.
